Nmap , which stands for "Network Mapper," is an open source tool that lets you perform scans on local and remote networks. Nmap is very powerful when it comes to discovering network protocols, scanning open ports, detecting operating systems running on remote machines] so yes(A)is the correct answer

Nmap (Network Mapper) is used to discover hosts and services on a computer network by sending packets and analyzing the responses. Nmap provides a number of features for probing computer networks, including host discovery and service and operating system detection. These features are extensible by scripts that provide more advanced service detection,vulnerability detection and other features. Nmap can adapt to network conditions including latency and congestion during a scan.
